2007 Louis Jadot, Musigny - Magnum 1.5L

BH96

This arguably possesses the most interesting and complex set of aromas in the entire range, which given that there are close to 50 wines reviewed in 2007, and most of them top flight, is really saying something. A kaleidoscopic nose is just knock out in terms of its depth and breadth with a striking spiciness to the ripe red, blue and black pinot fruit trimmed in bits of earth, cassis and underbrush, all of which continues onto the incredibly rich, powerful and mouth coating flavors that are at once seductive and serious, all wrapped in a textured finish that seems to go on and on. There are not too many 'wow' wines in the 2007 vintage but this is one of them.
